548: "Days Gone Bye" (TWD S1E1 Rewatch)

Happy Halloween! Happy 13th anniversary of The Walking Dead (13 years is brains, we’re pretty sure)! And welcome to the start of our Walking Dead rewatch! Rarrr!!! It was such a pleasure to revisit TWD S1E1 “Days Gone Bye” and find that it’s as fantastic an episode of television as we remembered, and also to explore how our perspective on it has changed now that we’ve seen the whole series and we’ve all got 13 more years of life behind us. We’re excited to keep going with the rewatch, and hopefully make our way back through the entire series, and we need your help to make it a success. Please let your WD-loving friends know we’re doing this. Just send them to thecastofus.com . They’ll thank you for it :) If you’re in a Walking Dead Facebook group (or any other WD group), let them know too! I’d think people who are fans would be into it. T As always, we want your feedback (and zombie sounds) as we go back through The Walking Dead. Next episode: The Walking Dead S1E2 “Guts” :o You can email your thoughts or send a voice message to talk@podcastica.com . Or check out our Facebook group, where we put up comment posts for each episode, at facebook.com/groups/podcastica . It’s the 10th anniversary of Walker Stalker Con!
